By the late 1960s, Ford had seemingly abandoned ambition toward
road track dominance, or so many thought. Consumers often voiced
discontent toward the manufacturer's growing efforts toward
appeasing those who desired outright straight-line performance.
However, the vast majority of such critics were oblivious to the
fact that Ford was already in the midst of creating their next
street-dominating Mustang. With the right team assembled, the
development of the newest road-track-derived Mustang got underway.
The goal was simple; build a Mustang which was capable of
dominating the Trans-Am racing circuit in its respective class, and
toppling the Z/28 Camaro in the process. From these efforts, the
1969 Mustang Boss 302 was born.
For consignment, a true "G" code 1969 Boss 302 Mustang that was
completely rebuilt in 2019-2020. Bent Metal Customs of Lansdale, PA
did the task and did it very well. It now has a Ford Racing 5.0
liter Coyote crate engine, a T-56 transmission, front and rear
Total Control Suspension and 4 wheel Wilwood disc brakes. Snazzy
paint and an Elite Marti Report and you cannot go wrong with this
muscular beauty.
Exterior
The body was stripped down completely, soda blasted, primed and
sanded 3 times the bathed in factory Bright Yellow. It sports the
correct Boss 302 stripes in black. A satin black hood with Bright
Yellow edging is seen above the menacing exaggerated design for the
grille. Deep inset headlights and some extra lights just inside the
central portion of the grille are noted along with a shiny chrome
molded top the grille bumper below. Gone is the hockey stick cove
of yore and now the stripes give that illusion on the sides, only
in reverse. For the fastback sloped rear we see black louvers
making their way down to the rear deck where a black spoiler
resides. A near vertical rear with the essential trio of vertical
tail lights are on either corner of the black back to the car.
Large 3-inch chromed tail pipes peek out from either side on the
bottom just below another shiny bumper just prior to the rear roll
pan. 16-inch Vintage Wheel Works with multi-spoke cast wheels are
wrapped with Cooper rubber. A screaming yellow Zonker if you
will!
Interior
In contrast to the yellow excitement that is outside, the interior
of the car presents in all black. As we swing the doors we glide
past sleek padded and stitched door panels wrapped with nearly
perfect black vinyl. Inside I can perch myself on high back wider
tuck and roll insert and smooth bolstered seats. The rear seat
matches the buckets and also folds down. A snazzy center console
races between the seats and has a large storage area/armrest and
houses the yellow ball topped shifter. As we get to the dash it has
the factory design of the deep set instruments however they have
been modernized to digital. The dash has also been replaced to
accommodate AC vents which are filled with cold air via a Vintage
Air and heating system. Looking stock, save for a roll bar and
Shelby style seat belts, this modernized interior is snazzy. Power
windows have also been installed and are actuated by the old crank
handles! Cool! Black carpeting floods the floors and Boss 302
stitched floor coverings are in. Lovely.
Drivetrain
Unpinning the hood we lift it to reveal a very modern and very
stout 5.0 L Coyote V8 Ford Racing engine filling the bay. It is fed
by EFI and a 6-speed manual T56 transmission is on the back. The
rear axle weighs in at 9 inches and is a 3.91 TracLoc version.
Headers and stainless steel mufflers are on for the exhale. This
car is not for the faint of heart.
Undercarriage
With a reinforced unibody to handle the extra stress the Coyote
power plant puts into the car, we see all rust free steel looking
like it just rolled out of the showroom. Total Control is installed
on the suspension with independent coil springs in the front and
leaf springs in the rear and Wilwood disc brakes are on all 4
corners. Just fab for this reinforced undercarriage.
Drive-Ability
I slipped in and it was immediately off to the races. The mill
fired to life with mighty roar, and the car is a screamer.
Exhilarating is the word that sums up this fully functioning car
right out of 1969.
For those who find themselves demanding agility and street pounding
performance in the late 1960s, the Boss 302 delivered in earnest.
The infamous 302 was well adept at powering through curves and
hammering down straightaways, providing a white-knuckle driving
experience for all that sat behind the wheel. Today, the 1969 Boss
302 remains a hot commodity with collectors and with horsepower
lover drawing extras, it is a really wonderful classic and total
performer. Hurry in, it will leave here as fast as it drives!
